Hue Screen Color Grabber

This is a program for Philips Hue that grabs the average color of a screen. Does not work with DirectX programs / games.

The program takes a printscreen. Then it calculates the average color of the image. After that it sends the color to all the Philips Hue lights.

  • Download and extract hue-screen.zip
  • Create a file named config.properties (see example below)
